Hello guys:
There's something I've been struggling with for some hours without knowing
exactly how to solve it.
Through AWX, I want users to enter the size of disks for a virtual machine
using a text area in a survey, like this:
100
20
130
230
When I assign this input to a variable, I see that ansible converts them to
a list, like this:
mydisks: |-
100
20
130
230
By using vmware_guest module, I'd like to convert it to something like...
vmware_guest:
disk:
- size_gb: 100
type: None
- size_gb: 20
type: None
- size_gb: 130
type: None
- size_gb: 230
type: None
So I found some references on Internet that look like this jinja2
expressions:
vmware_guest:
disk: >-
[{% for size in mydisks.split() %}'{ size_gb: {{ size }}, type: None
}', {% endfor %}]
However, when I run the playbook I got an ugly error like this:
TASK [Create virtual machine]
********************************************************************************************************************************************************************
An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use
-vvv. The error was: AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'

exact error", "rc": 1}
Would someone, please, help me with this issue? I'm sure my jinja2
expression it's wrong, but I can figure out what's the right way to do it.
Thanks in advance
